637-1985 - IEEE Guide for the Reclamation of Insulating Oil and Criteria for Its Use

Description: The scope of this guide covers: mineral insulating oil commonly defined as transformer oil; definition and description of reclaiming procedures; the test methods used to evaluate the progress and end point of the reclamation process; and what criteria recommended for the use of reclaimed oils are considered suitable. The greatest benefit derived from widespread reclamation may be in the substitution of suitably reclaimed oil for large quantities of new oil which are normally required in service for maintenance or make-up oil. This will free a considerable volume of new oil for use in new apparatus.
